32 thoughts on “Tears of Blood”

A Deep piece of writing showing the lives stripped as well as the land.. Both the USA and my own country England has much to answer for for what they have done throughout history to others that have enslaved and robbed families, Both in Africa and in India and elsewhere..
Your words hit home a profound truth.

I did Kim.. it spoke to me deeply.. I have been reading alot of things recently that held accounts of various conflicts..Just cropping up in passages of books I have re read upon my Spiritual Shelves
Then Mid week my hubby and I went to the cinema to watch The Viceroy’s House. About the Partition in India with Pakistan in 1947.. There were 40 million refugees, and Millions slaughtered.. All because of a few men and their ideas..
And I thought to what is happening in the States.. and my heart bleeds with you Kim, for I wish I could envision a positive outcome.. Time will tell,, I keep praying and releasing too.. Sending Love into the fray is only what I can do.. xxxx ❤

I am trying to let it go but there’s so much going on and I worry about my kids. I am making peace because if the Healthcare comes into play I will be one that won’t survive. I have too many health issues.

It must be really daunting to live with that hanging over you too.. There are many problems within our own Health Care the NHS.. but it is positively a jewel in comparison to the lottery you folks have to go through to get health care..
So my thoughts are with you. and I can so see why you are worried.. ❤

This immigration ban echoes the sounds of slavery. Parents who try to cross the border with their children they are going to take their children from their parents. The reason the parents will be in jail and the children in the custody of the state, which is also jail. In what world is it okay to seperate parents and children? It more sadness then anger that I feel.

I don’t know. They are making a mess of the USA air and water and hurting the poor. But the rich and corporation will be doing great. They will even be able to hunt endangered animals. they took the bees of the endangered list and mentally ill people can get a gun with no problem. Just to name a few of the insanity happening.

It’s called living in ivory towers D: Idiots, all of them. The trouble is, a lot of the decision-makers in the highest positions, are too old for it to matter to them what happens in the long-term. It’s a sort of “I’m alright, Jack” mentality, without regard for future generations. They don’t care about the poor, the extinction of animals, the death of bees and that the only things people will be able to eat one day is alfafa and a few other boring foods that don’t depend on pollination. Grrrr… I could go on and on about this. It has the makings of an epic poem.

I agree. The thing is the GMO’S don’t need pollinating because they are seedless. Which means eventually there won’t be any natural food source unless farmers begin storing seeds today. The GMO foods don’t need pesticides because they already bug repellent. We have our bodies and worry about them and the kind of future they have. 45’s mother lived in this building I use to work in from time to time. It was 3 or 4 but I think it was 3. I worked in the basement from there we could walk through a passageway past all the buildings. People use to use the tunnel to jog. In the center there was stores, candy, grocery, gift shops. There was a movie theater, a dinner a place to buy appliances like refrigerators and stoves. There was no reason to go outside. I can see our future world’s being like that. A tube from your door to a tunnel to take you from here to there because the air would be too dangerous to breath. So true 45 and his family lives in a bubble and it’s all about making money. So sad.

Kim – dearest Kim – to see you writing again makes me not want to stop smiling. If I did not know you I would think ‘this is a brilliant poem’ but knowing you fills me with pride to see your beautiful mind at work again – sharing with us the insights you have – and all of them so true of these troubled days. You are a light in the dark my friend, and we are so very lucky to have you xo

Thank you Candy. I wish my muse would give me more positive inspiration. The climate of our country has me not depressed but that the best words. Maybe sad will be better. Thank you so much for visiting and reading.

Dear One, I rarely write ‘happy’ so it’s no essential theme in my estimate. Yes, as your friend I wish your happiness but I think writing at all in any genre and subject is valuable and it is not negative to write about negative experiences or changes in the world, it is responsible. If we all kept quiet and said nothing, how would that be a good thing? Right? (always xo)

those who came
cannot be held to blame
the flame of the light
and what is right
will burn on their souls
and the shame
of the whites
is a reversed
blight
for things
they could and should
have done themselves!
